Reminiscing

The McCoy bunch in March of 2007 at Petit Jean state park.
This is a picture of us on the "turtle rocks" while we were hiking on one of the trails.

In this picture Samuel and Chandler were having a blast running through the water fall
We hiked probably 2 miles to get to the water fall that the boys were playing at. Aaron is just caring him for fun here. On the way back Aaron had to carry him because his legs were tired and therefore he fell asleep.

Lanie loves to take pictures and to have her picture made.

What a princess.


I was sitting in the living room a few minutes ago writing out Christmas cards when I had the urge to come to the computer and look at some photos of this past year. Wow, how much we did together as a family. One thing that we loved (ok I liked to do this) to go do is to go camping. We would try to go once a month. It didn't have to be far away just a get away from life hustles and bustles to enjoy what God had put together. We had so much fun setting up camp(if you can call it that with a camper), hiking, biking, playing at the playground(yes, we played too), napping, and cooking (roasting marshmellows and making smores was always everybodys favorites). The boys are sad that I had to sell the camper but as the weather gets warmer will will definatly be going camping(even if we do have to sleep outside with the bears).


I am looking forward to the springtime and summertime when we can just get up and go and do. We might not be home much this summer, but I do know that where ever we will adventure off to, we will be enjoying each other as a family that God has made.

Hey, sleeping in a camper trailer, no fair. Meanwhile, I would get to sleep outdoors with the wild dogs and snakes. YIKES! Although, there is something to be said for the yummy monkey bread you made for Ned's birthday. We have fond memories of camping with you guys and geocaching along the way. Aaron and Ned sure enjoyed searching for treasure together (if you could call it that at all). I liked it whenever I would find it first! I will treasure those times spent with you guys forever! Love you!
